Abstract
Systems and methods for exchanging synchronization information between processing units using a synchronization network are disclosed. The disclosed systems and methods include a device including a host and associated neural processing units. Each of the neural processing units can include a command communication module and a synchronization communication module. The command communication module can include circuitry for communicating with the host device over a host network. The synchronization communication module can include circuitry enabling communication between neural processing units over a synchronization network. The neural processing units can be configured to each obtain a synchronized update for a machine learning model. This synchronized update can be obtained at least in part by exchanging synchronization information using the synchronization network. The neural processing units can each maintain a version of the machine learning model and can synchronize it using the synchronized update.
